I have a headache.

I’ve been working waaaay too much.

We might find out tomorrow when we get to fly to Portland. We know we’ll be there for 3 nights. And, we know we can go anytime after the committee date. We are hoping to fly up there on 3/26 and fly back on 3/29. Now we have to wait and find out if that works for everyone else. Waiting. Again. What a surprise.

I realized I’ve been blogging since sometime in 2002 – but I’ve moved a few times and lost a few posts.  There are some posts that I don’t want to lose or I need to re-read periodically.  If you are interested, check out the “Favs” page above.  🙂

No Time to blog

I’ve been working and knitting and caring for sicks kids and blowing my nose and I’m just exhausted!

  • Work – still loving my job! A bit of a change might mean less hours for me but we’ll have to see. Definitely, getting a new employee up to speed is going to take some extra time. A friend of mine is going to start working with me! Yeah!! I will continue what I’m doing while shifting a few things to her. She starts on Friday – I can’t wait!
  • Knitting – Finished mom’s birthday socks. Started the Secret of the Stole 2 and making a little something for JGirl. I’ll try to take pics when it’s done.
  • Sick Kids – Yep. J3 has been home sick – which J1 and J2 seem to believe means they should have sick days too! LOL Sorry – homeschoolers don’t get sick days! LOL

Just wanted you to know I was still alive. Just busy. I did call the fostermom to find out what size JGirl is so I could knit her something. No reply. Guess I should call the caseworker. Hate to bug her over something so simple. We are on day 6 of the 10 day period for the ruling to be contested. No new news.

Thanks Geoff!

Thanks to Geoff for helping me decide how to handle the banner situation! 🙂 I also took the opportunity to update the boys pics….J1 at his 13th birthday being prayed over and inducted as a Squire on his road to being a Knight….J2 as a pirate (again!! ;-))….J3 at Tahoe (ok it’s not a newer one but it’s a great one of him!).

Still trying to decide on the nickname….Eric calls her CJ ….but JGirl is really growing on me. 🙂 I’ve got time to decide though! Darn it! 😉

Tell me what you think….

1)  Do you think it’s too soon to change my header?  Should I wait until she is really here?

2)  I’m not happy with the nickname “Princess” – mainly because it’s too long to type lol and I think she’s going to be spoiled enough without the title too!  So, I thought of some other options

  • Lil Miss
  • Jgirl
  • CJ
  • Missie

But to be honest, I’m not thrilled with any of them or I’d already be using it! LOL  So let me know if you like one of these or if you have another idea.
